Aha. I see. You don't use -h on delete device! I assumed that error was caused by running it outside the correct directory!
Presumably it won't discover because it's marked down by the poller. I'm not sure if we notify about that during discovery, perhaps we don't.

why are you trying to run observium scripts from your home directory with full path?

How can I fix this?
